摘要: Listeria monocytogenes is a foodbome pathogen that can form biofilm and tolerate severe environment condition and thus persist in food product for a prolonged period, which poses a significant risk to food safety. While some chromosomal genetic determinants associated with stress resistance and biofilm formation have been characterized, plasmid-mediated stress resistance in particular L. monocytogenes strains are less known. In this study, we showed a L. monocytogenes strain SZO8 (serovar 1/2b) isolated from a raw meat processing environment harbored a 25kb plasmid, designated as pLMSZ08. After incubation under the selective condition containing novobiocin, pLMSZO8 was successfully cured from SZ08. Compared to its parental strain SZ08, the cured strain SZO8* was not able to grow well under the high concentration of sodium chloride (5.5%). SZO8* displayed higher efficiency of plaque formation compared with its parental strain SZ08. There were no significant growth difference under different temperature and pH conditions between SZO8 and SZ08*. Biofilm formation of SZO8* reduced significantly compared with SZO8 after 48hr incubation. Furthermore, the relative expression levels of flagella -associated genes in SZO8* were up-regulated comparing to those in SZ08. We have sequenced the pLMSZO8 and the sequencing results showed that pLMSZO8 harbors genes associated with transcriptional regulation, metal/drug transport, histidine kinase and ATPase. These results suggested that these genes encoded by pLMSZO8 are associated with tolerance, motility and biofihn formation in L. monocytogenes SZ08.
